Moicano (20-6-1 MMA, 12-6 UFC) was quickly submitted by lightweight champion Makhachev (27-1 MMA, 16-1 UFC) in Saturday’s main event at Intuit Dome. Pimblett, who was previously angling to fight Moicano, expected more heart from the Brazilian.

It appears that a rematch is going to be next for Islam Makhachev, but it’s not the rematch that was scheduled for this past Saturday. A visibly annoyed Dana White said in the UFC 311 post-fight press conference that Arman Tsarukyan lost his opportunity and he would have to fight back to a title shot.

Makhachev’s victory over Renato Moicano was so easy that it felt darn near anticlimactic. Is it time for Ilia Topuria to come up to challenge him?
